Publish daily social post to channels and log

Automatically run on a daily schedule across Google Sheets, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn, and Gmail. Create and update posts and logs when scheduled time arrives, weekdays are due, or a daily run is scheduledβ€”so you can publish consistently, capture platform post IDs, and notify teams without manual posting.

How this automation accelerates your daily social posting

When the daily publish time hits, delayed posts disrupt audience engagement and reporting timelines. This automation looks up the next content row and creates platform posts and history and sends notificationsβ€”so your team can post and track updates without manual coordination.
